Understand the end-to-end implementation process, from planning, to populating the system with data, and to tuning.

Record your planning decisions as you read through the planning information.

Review the physical deployment options, and review best practices for deploying servers, databases, and consoles.

Size your deployment to select the appropriate deployment use case, select the appropriate hardware, and achieve a scalable implementation.

Review the measurements used to develop sizing guidelines and best practices for tuning the system for performance.

You can use the performance tuning guidelines to plan for configuration changes post-installation or to resolve performance challenges that after deployment.

Acquire systems that have been tested, and ensure those systems have the appropriate software installed to support the TrueSight Infrastructure Management product.

Check the ports used by the various TrueSight Infrastructure Management components and plan whether or not to modify pre- or post-installation port settings to avoid conflicts in the environment.

Understand what considerations or changes you should make in your environment to achieve a secure implementation.

Check the localized operating systems on which the product components can be deployed.

Understand which products and components are available with your license.
